Hi, I just received a suspicious MMS on my phone from "O2 Business"there was an option to download a file but removed it instead. Is there any chance that my phone has been compromised. First thing I did after that was disabling auto download for MMS and installing AVG antivirus and I had scanned the entire phone.

As long as you didn't open the attachment you will be OK.

@WDZ45 You did the right thing. You can block the number that texted you, or any number you think may be suspicious.
